719 Ride. It’s a thing.
To mask or not to mask … that is the question.
There seems to be great controversy as to whether masks make a difference and who should be wearing them. I don’t know who to believe. I don’t know what to believe. What I do know is that I miss people. I miss my people. I miss spontaneity.
It’s 2020 and I’m Giving Up
I have lived my entire life trying to get other people to behave a certain way. To make the decisions I think they should make. To choose the things I think they should choose. 2020 is the year I choose to stop.

And that is the gift God gave me in my marriage.
